Let's Get BeDazzled!

As Seen On TV
Let's kick it old school for a bit and reminisce about the days of jean jackets bedazzled with colorful jewels. Not only jackets but hats, t-shirts, jeans, and skirts! OK so I wasn't so cool back then and my mother would never let me get one since she thought it was a waste of money and she could sew some jewels on a hat if I really wanted it.
So I've discussed my shoes for the ceremony but those puppies aren't going to stay on all day. I mean we'll be headed to the beach for pictures after and I know I won't be sporting the ballet flats in the sand. That just says "UNCOMFORTABLE" written all over it. So I've decided to find a sparkly pair of flip flops for the reception so I can be comfortable.
Crystal Flip Flops



These are so cool!! Swarovski crystals cover the straps to add that special touch! In my eyes that is perfect except they cost $65! Man is that expensive for flip flops! So the little light bulb went off in my head and I thought, 'what if I just buy the flip flops and glue them on myself?!'
Flip flop season is just around the corner and I'm sure stores like Old Navy will be stocking their shelves soon with every color imaginable. A trip to Michaels is in store for this weekend. Wish me luck!

  1. Very cool - great idea rather than spending on "bridal" flip flops. Keep it in mind when you're getting your gown hemmed though. I did this for my cousin's wedding and the dress was too long with flip flops on. I was tripping on the dang thing all night! Or maybe get platform ones? Good luck! :)

  2. Great point!! Although i'm a GIANT (ok only 5'8") and my dress is perfect length already so I lucked out in that category!

    Great to hear from you!
